As far as i can tell, shipping costs kill any online retailer deals. Your LHBS will probably be the best option, unless you can get in on a bulk group buy direct from the source.

You're upstate? Check out North Country Malt. Their shipping isn't too bad. I know I pay less to get a sack delivered to my door than it would cost me if I hoofed it on down to the LHBS.

The Country Malt Group is way up state but if it's in driving distance, go for it.

Just as an example, Thomas Fawcett Maris Otter is $.73/pound for a full sack.

I use the country malt group. They have great prices if you can get a bulk order together.
